Production of Polymer Nanosuspensions
by Microfluidics Corp.
Microfluidizer Processor based technologies offer two options for production of polymer nanopartcles. The first is an emulsion method, which involves dissolving the polymer and API in the oil phase of an emulsion and then subsequent removal of the oil. The second is a precipiation method, in which the polymer and API are dissolved in a solvent and then forced to precipitate inside the high shear mixing zone when mixed with an antisolvent. This article showcases polymer nanosuspensions in the range of 50-500 nm that were prepared with two different polymers, using both techniques. Furthermore, these tests indicate that an API was successfully encapsulated within the nanoparticles.
